Martyr Meets World: To Solve The Hard Problem of Inhumanity Quotes

“Throw all worry overboard and leap into life - leap into life and achieve the unachievable - leap into life and accomplish the unthinkable - leap into life and realize the impossible. Person lives only once, live so big that your very existence turns into a definition of life.”

“I don't have any allegiance to any single flag, but still I cannot disrespect them either with words or with action, you know why, because a flag represents a people, therefore disrespecting a flag means disrespecting a people. Let me tell you a story. Once upon a time there was a great leader in one of the countries of planet earth. The military of a neighboring country had taken over a region there, but accompanied by his brave soldiers the great leader liberated that part of his country from oppression. In celebration when the people of his country laid down the flag of the oppressor for their leader to walk on, he refused - he refused to insult even the flag of an invading country, for such is the character of a true leader. Leaders don't insult others to feel superior - they simply live as an epitome of courage, conscience and humility, and others can't help but follow on their own.”

“It's time to be a hero, instead of holding out for one. The good people of history are all gone - MLK, Lincoln, Parks, Tolstoy, Teresa, Madiba and many more - all are gone, now it's time for us to be the new good people. We must be the new people - a new people with a new vision - a new people with a new perception - a new people with a rejuvenated and determined desire for equality, inclusion and assimilation - a new people bearing the torch of a new world, where religion is the people, philosophy is the people, salvation is the people.”
